DGS Ninja was the proud course sponsor for the World Ninja League (WNL) Season 9 World Championships. The event was an incredible showcase of athleticism, determination, and community spirit, and we’re incredibly grateful to be a part of this community and to do our part in making it a success.

Setting Up for Success

On Monday, June 17, our team arrived in Greensboro, North Carolina with trucks loaded to the brim and eager to get started. We were fortunate to collaborate with WNL’s exceptional rig team, working hand-in-hand to ensure that all of the rigs and every obstacle was perfectly set up and thoroughly tested. Check out our YouTube video below where we documented everything behind the scenes.
